Explanation:

CO2 is called as gas because it exist in single thermodynamics state i.e CO exist in gases state only at room temperature.

babymother [125]

Use the equation d=m/v

your mass or "m" is 78 g

your volume or "v" is 60mL

if you plug those values into the equation it will look like this:

d=78/60
d=1.3g/mL should be what you come up with

A 100 gram glass container contains 200 grams of water and 50.0 grams of ice all at 0°c. a 200 gram piece of lead at 100°c is ad

ASHA 777 [7]

$0 \; \textdegree{\text{C}}$

Explanation:

Assuming that the final (equilibrium) temperature of the system is above the melting point of ice, such that all ice in the container melts in this process thus

$E(\text{fusion}) = m(\text{ice}) \cdot L_{f}(\text{water}) = 66.74 \; \text{kJ}$ and
$m(\text{water, final}) = m(\text{water, initial}) + m(\text{ice, initial}) = 0.250 \; \text{kg}$

Let the final temperature of the system be $t \; \textdegree{\text{C}}$ . Thus $\Delta T (\text{water}) = \Delta T (\text{beaker}) = t(\text{initial}) - t_{0} = t \; \textdegree{\text{C}}$

$Q(\text{water}) &= &c(\text{water}) \cdot m(\text{water, final}) \cdot \Delta T (\text{water})= 1.047 \cdot t\; \text{kJ}$ (converted to kilojoules)
$Q(\text{container}) &= &c(\text{glass}) \cdot m(\text{container}) \cdot \Delta T (\text{container})= 0.0837 \cdot t \; \text{kJ}$
$Q(\text{lead}) &= &c(\text{lead}) \cdot m(\text{lead}) \cdot \Delta T (\text{lead})= 0.0255 \cdot (100 - t)\; \text{kJ}$

The fact that energy within this system (assuming proper insulation) conserves allows for the construction of an equation about variable $t$ .

$E(\text{absorbed} ) = E(\text{released})$

$E(\text{absorbed} ) = E(\text{fushion}) + Q(\text{water}) + Q(\text{container})$
$E(\text{released}) = Q(\text{lead})$

Confirm the uniformity of units, equate the two expressions and solve for $t$ :

$66.74 + 1.047 \cdot t + 0.0837 \cdot t = 0.0255 \cdot (80 - t)$

$t \approx -55.95\; \textdegree{\text{C}} < 0\; \textdegree{\text{C}}$ which goes against the initial assumption. Implying that the final temperature does <em>not</em> go above the melting point of water- i.e., $t \le 0 \; \textdegree{\text{C}}$ . However, there's no way for the temperature of the system to go below $0 \; \textdegree{\text{C}}$ ; doing so would require the removal of heat from the system which isn't possible under the given circumstance; the ice-water mixture experiences an addition of heat as the hot block of lead was added to the system.

The temperature of the system therefore remains at $0 \; \textdegree{\text{C}}$ ; the only macroscopic change in this process is expected to be observed as a slight variation in the ratio between the mass of liquid water and that of the ice in this system.

7. How many moles of mercury(ii) oxide, hgo, are needed to produce 12. 5 g of oxygen, o2? 2 hgo(s) --->2 hg(l) o2(g)

svetoff [14.1K]

Moles are the division of the mass and the molar mass. The moles of mercury (ii) oxide in the decomposition reaction needed to produce oxygen are 0.781 moles.

<h3>What is a decomposition reaction?</h3>

A decomposition reaction is a breakdown of the reactant into simpler products. The decomposition of mercury (ii) oxide can be shown as:

2HgO(s) → 2Hg(l) + O₂(g)

From the reaction, it can be said that 2 moles of mercury (ii) oxide decomposes to produce 1 mole of oxygen.

The moles of oxygen that needs to be produced are calculated as:

Moles = mass ÷ molar mass

= 12.5 gm ÷ 32 gm/mol

= 0.39 moles

0.39 moles of oxygen are needed to be produced.

From the stoichiometric coefficient of the reaction, the moles of HgO is calculated as: 2 × 0.39 = 0.781 moles

Therefore, 0.781 moles of HgO are required in the reaction.
